From Yen On:
Kunon Gurion’s blindness is considered to be a mark of honor, proof that he’s a descendant of a legendary hero. But for as long as he can remember, his bloodline has felt more like a curse than a blessing. So when seven-year-old Kunon catches wind that magic can give strength to the weak and wisdom to fools, he dedicates himself to crafting a spell that will grant sight to the blind. Kunon blazes through his studies with such passion that he catches the attention of the royal palace but will his newfound drive and talent be enough to convince Zeonly Finroll, famed Royal Sorcerer, to be his new teacher?
